Lovestruck review

www.lovestruck.com

Lovestruck is a niche dating site designed for young professional people located in major cities across the UK such as Manchester, Birmingham, Leeds, Newcastle and more further a field. Search for people that work near you so you can arrange convenient dates. For this review we only explored the London offering. Presumably the largest network listed here.

These guys now offer a smartphone app working on both the Google Android and iPhone platforms.

The Good: Interesting USP based on dating people that work or live close by • Fast profile creation, easy to try before you buy • iPhone and Android mobile apps

The Bad: Pricing above the average

Many of the links on our website take you to your destination via a special re-direct.
